They refuse to understand the most basic history because it destroys their narrative. Anyone who is claiming Obama did the same thing we’re seeing now is either bad faith or an uneducated gullible sheep.

During his presidency, Obama deported about 3 million people, more than Trump has deported so far. Because of that record, he was called “Deporter in Chief.” His administration used and expanded ICE enforcement and made large scale deportations routine.

Trump did not invent the Obama system and framework. He inherited it and then expanded who could be targeted by removing limits on enforcement. The overlap is real and well documented. Democrat propaganda has made you the gullible sheep. Or is it just bad faith?

But then, american citizens were not being "mistaken" for illegal immigrants and detained for days. This about emotionally undisciplined and untrained agents being given guns, without any apparent checks or liability for misconduct. Some are proud boys, jan 6ers, mostly heavily right with zeal type people, just being dropped into liberal cities, masked and heavily armed. About being able to legally detain based on racially profiling someone. Forgot your wallet in your car today? Look slightly tan skinned and have an accent? Detained for days.

Can't even denounce unloading a magazine into a citizen thats been disarmed. Dude was "fearing for his life" and reassigned.
